The New Stuff

The Robotech saga continues in the Robotech: 2-Movie Collection, as the classic characters from the original series return in an all-new adventure, arriving on DVD July 23. The Robotech: 2-Movie Collection DVD set includes the never-before-seen feature Love Live Alive as well as the previously released The Shadow Chronicles.

Here’s a summary of the plot of the all-new anime adventure Love Live Alive, taken from the DVD:
“Taking place during and after the events of Robotech: The New Generation (available in Robotech: The Complete Series from Lionsgate Home Entertainment), this thrilling installment in the Robotech saga follows the adventures of Lieutenant Lance “Lancer” Belmont as he recounts his journey from before his first encounter with Scott Bernard to the aftermath following Admiral Rick Hunter’s expedition to liberate the Earth from the mysterious Invid race. Robotech: The Shadow Chronicles continues the epic battle as Scott Bernard must once again face his tragic past as he joins the returning Robotech Expedition against new mechanized adversaries known as the Haydonites.”

If you recall, we first mentioned this release last Fall, during our coverage of New York Comic Con. To recap that story, go to this link:

Complete with bonus material that includes multiple featurettes, deleted scenes, outtakes, photo galleries and animatics, this affordably priced 2-film DVD collection will be available for the suggested retail price of only $19.98.

I am a Big Fan of all types of animation. Like a lot of things, the cream always rises to the top. My favorites have included Star Wars: The Clone Wars, anything Pixar, Phineas and Ferb, Voltron Force, and the DC/WB Animated Films. I have a lot of Old School favorites as well, such as Star Blazers, Voltron, Looney Toons, Tom & Jerry, and Scooby Doo.
